Quote of the Day

Oh what the hell, and here's some more

Heaven must love fools, since it made so many of us
~Episode 34 - Keep on Dancing

Who are you? What is identity? You like cheese, and sun on water. You know your age and what happens when your eyes grow tired. Filtered through some predisposition, you are the product of everything that ever happened to you, but if you lost your memory, who could you be?
~Episode 30 - Who Am I?

Cunning and simplicity may belong together in an ape. A monkey who could recognise both would be on the long road towards humanity
~Episode 19 - Vampire Master

Methinks 'Monkey' has been lifting thinks from Moliere...

It is very hard to call anything wrong or evil except that which is clear in yourself
~Episode 19 - Vampire Master



But i can't stop with just one quote from that peculiar-n-silly show...

Love which fears ebb and flow is jealousy, and becomes a curse
~Episode 24 - The Fires of Jealousy

Monkey is a deep thinking, feeling, primate

<-- clickit clickit

Just found this and i thought i'd share...

How is it that shyness and tenderness go hand in hand, that technique is the sister of emotion, and rigour of freedom?
~Jean Luc Godard - Godard on Godard

You mustn’t escape and you mustn’t get caught

(Alright, not entirely suitable, but meliked )

Interesting shot, Gg. Do you think they used little spotlights to get so much contrast? That's really beautiful in a strange (rather banal) way.

Are you calling my miraculously smiling vegetables banal?!

I punish thee!

(with a light rain of monkeys)

Dunno how real they are. (The chirpy veg, not the swooping mammals). Have a look at their inbred cousins and decide for thyself

Ach well, might as well sling in a favourite Monkeyism while i'm here...

As the works of men speak to other men so life is the message the universe sends to itself
~Espisode 27 - Pigsy's Ten Thousand Ladies

psht! Collar me slow, but I didn't see the smiles til you said this. I had just noticed that the contrast seemed higher than normal. [/geek]

No need for drama

(contrary to what the site says, i reckon the one on the right looks like its got a pouty li'l manga mouth )

Oh, another quote? Alright then...

They stuck Monkey in a cage. He entertained them willy-nilly, and free entertainment is not to be despised
~Episode 8 - Pigsy Woos a Widow

(It was time for a silly one )

nice digressing people, especially with the weird vegetables that keep talking in my dreams (?) at night......
